Come on and do the conga

The title of the post has no relevancy, I just seem to have the song stuck in my head and have done for the past 30 minutes. This is just going to be a post full of waffle, as that pretty much sums up my day today.

Today has been filled with CV writing, paying off old bills, and job hunting. Boring eh!?

I absolutely hate CV writing, I think its because I hate writing about myself. I feel like I am just bigging (a word?) myself up and the employer will read it thinking 'hmmm you think very highly of yourself'. I also never know whether to put some of my previous jobs on my CV, does an employer searching for a web-designer really need to know I worked at Starbucks!? I realise I can pull skills from this job and say how they will help in my new position, it just seems odd.

Have also been paying off bills for a flat I moved out of over a month ago. When I moved home, I thought I would have enough money to keep me going till I settle in a new job. I forgot British Gas like to come up with a sneaky bill once you have paid your 'Last bill'.

Anyway ramble over. I am very much looking forward to getting a new job, getting some money together and having happier things to ramble about. I am a very happy person, this post doesn't make it look that way does it. You will just have to take my word for it :)

Love to you all

Pretty ting a ling

I received a pretty little parcel in the post this morning, silly me had forgotten I had ordered it so it was a lovely surprise.


I saw on other peoples blog posts that Love Suzie was closing down so I thought I would go have a nose at  the jewellery. Its such a shame they are closing, they have some lovely stuff, I could quite easily of bought it all if it wasn't for the lack of a job at the momento.

In the end I settled for a scrabble ring and the necklace named 'Ellie', it had to be done. The package was so cute and wrapped up so well I didn't want to open at first. There was also a business card enclosed with a personal note written on the back. Personal touches like that are a seller to me, I love them. Very happy with both items, currently rocking the ring :)


Anybody know of any more jewellery shops alike to Love Suzie!? I love having a browse and a cheeky purchase.
